Cross Silhouette Frame and older SD models

So this is something I've been wondering for a little while... Bandai put out this Cross Silhouette series of SD Gundam models that lets you choose between "classic" SD proportions (legless feet and tiny non-jointed arms) or the more modern proportions akin to what you see in MS Saga. I be...

Re: Gundam Vs. Series Discussion Topic

Well, it's been a while, so in case you missed it Gundam Extreme Vs 2 is currently being location tested across Japan. It looks to be shedding some of the elements that made Gundam Versus so divisive like Boost Dive and the slower speed in favor of being a straight-up sequel to the ExVs series. And ...

Re: Why doesn't Super Robot Wars have traditional character classes?

Because trying to shoehorn everything into categories made up by a bunch of nerds on a self-indulgent website like TV Tropes is a terrible idea.

Re: RPG Report?

So it's been a couple of weeks, and as promised here's some behind-the-scenes information about the game. Please bear in mind that most of this comes from conversations we had at dinner after the final session, therefore it's been a couple of weeks so I might not remember everything we discussed. Ma...

Re: RPG Report?

We continue from last session where Erika received a text message from fellow newspaper club member Marie Momoi, who saw her while she was transformed. Her immediate reaction was to check her Mana supply, which was the same as it was last time she checked, which suggested that whatever had happened ...

And now we jump right into things with Session 10.

Erika tried citing the Parable of Job, saying that just because things look bleak you shouldn't ...

Re: RPG Report?

Sorry I've been quiet on this front, but the game has been delayed a couple of times, once because my brother wanted a weekend off to spend time with the waifu and then this past weekend because he didn't feel prepared. This latter one is because he says he's working to actually do something with th...

Re: RPG Report?

Re: RPG Report?

Well there was a significant delay, but I'm back with another session report. Sadly January was a complete wash because I was out of state helping my aunt. We actually had this session early in February, but I took my sweet time writing it up as usual, and the next session was delayed to this Sunday...

Re: GUNDAM BUILD DIVERS

I dunno, I feel like the show is caught between two contradictory concepts. The whole point of Gunpla is that it's an actual thing you built with your own hands because, as long as you have the skill, you can do basically anything. Combining that with the whole VRMMO concept feels like it defeats th...

Re: Gundam Seed/Destiny Remaster Gets (re)Dub

Yeah, the broadcast version of Seed tried to censor handguns by painting on neon-colored strips and covering the muzzles with red circles to turn them into laser weapons. The effect was so cheesy that they were quickly nicknamed "disco guns", and some fans maintain the theory that it was c...

And here we go right into Session 7! --- The session began by quickly jumping back to Tuesday afternoon, when Fujiko and Aino were taking Aino's brother Kyo back home. Fujiko asked the pertinent question of how her parents are going to react to their supposedly dead son being alive again, but Aino d...

Apologies for the lapse in posting, but with the holiday season starting in November things have been kind of weird.

Re: How can OZ mass-produce Virgos with Gundanium Alloy?

I think the non-technical factors are more important to consider here. From what we see over the course of the franchise, Romefeller basically has the run of the world MS market, since the only non-standard MS we ever see are the Maganacs and Oliphants (the latter of which are just kind of thrown to...
